About Kody Thompson

Kody Thompson is a dynamic entrepreneur and visionary leader with a track record of success. He is renowned for his achievements as the founder of Lightning Sites, a web development company that he built from a $250 startup into a multi-million-dollar enterprise generating in excess of $5M profit across eight years..

…Over that time Lightning Sites was able to build over 1,500 websites, servicing over 800 clients monthly and generating in excess of 500,000 leads for his clients.

In 2023 Kody was able to transition out of the day-to-day operations of Lightning Sites, when it was acquired by US technology company Sites At Scale.

After successfully building his own remote teams to grow and exit Lightning Sites, Kody developed a reputation as an expert in building international teams and scaling businesses and launched the Business WrkPod in 2021, with Co-Founder Dale Beaumont.

WrkPod specialises in helping companies build teams in the Philippines, offering comprehensive services that include talent recruitment, state-of-the-art co-working spaces, and extensive training and support for both clients and Filipino talent.

In the last 2 years, Kody has facilitated the placement of over 900 remote staff for WrkPod clients and grown enabling them to achieve greater efficiency, reduce operational costs, and strengthen their enterprises.

Beyond his business endeavours, Kody is a devoted husband and father of two daughters. He is also deeply committed to philanthropy and has initiated the Love @ Scale project in the Philippines (see video), which supports 250 students. Kody’s journey is a testament to his entrepreneurial spirit and dedication to making a positive impact in both the business world and the community.
